I Ask You to Build Tractors, but You Build Rockets?

Chapter 204 Yellow River!

"CCTV reporter reported that the State Council and the Commission of Science and Technology will organize the 2016 China Semiconductor Industry Summit in Beijing on July 22, inviting many domestic semiconductor industry companies and related personnel to participate.

It is reported that the purpose of this summit is to build a new system led by new technologies, create a closed-loop chain of domestic chip software ecology, enhance domestic chip design and manufacturing capabilities, and strengthen awareness of independent intellectual property rights..."

On July 13, the official announced that this year's semiconductor summit will be held on July 22.

This is a very ordinary summit, but it reveals something unusual.

First of all, the organizers are the State Council and the Commission of Science and Technology, which obviously increases the value of the summit, and the second is the invited companies.

They are basically state-owned semiconductor companies, and there are a few fully private and relatively powerful private companies. No foreign-funded or joint-venture semiconductor companies were invited.

This is very unexpected. It is just a normal industry exchange summit that should invite as many as possible, rather than deliberately restricting the list, unless a certain biased policy is to be introduced.

Intel, Qualcomm, AMD, and Nvidia all expressed their concern about this summit, because none of the four of them were invited, and TSMC and Samsung, which would usually be invited, did not receive it either.

The latter two have a lot of foundry business in the mainland!

However, there are only eight or nine days left for the summit, so everyone is not in a hurry. However, on that day, a company registered with the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.

"Yellow River Semiconductor Technology Company, legal person: Wang Minjiang, registered capital: 5 billion yuan."

...

At 7 o'clock in the morning on July 13, the first batch of 6 crew members of the Hilla Space Station left the space station on the Mecca space shuttle after living in the space station for 15 days and returned to the atmosphere.

When Rayana Alkari drove the Mecca around the orbit and continued to slow down, Lin Ju briefly captured the Mecca passing by quickly with an optical telescope at the Tiangong Space Station through satellite measurement and control guidance.

To be precise, he flew over the Mecca, and now the Mecca is slowing down, and the Tiangong is the fast one.

The reason why the space journey ended in 15 days was that Abe was eager to welcome the astronauts, and secondly, the Hela space station was quite large, but there were not many supplies, most of which were brought up from the Mecca.

In order to prevent problems with the center of gravity, the five compartments launched did not have too many supplies, after all, it was not a dedicated cargo spacecraft.

Prince Swetan talked with the Aerospace Development Commission about the subsequent supplies and decided to use the Tianzhou series cargo spacecraft and the Xinyuan 5A rocket, which could deliver more than ten tons of supplies at a time, enough for the astronauts to live for a long time.

At 9.40 in the morning, the Mecca landed at the Mukala Airport at a speed of 370 kilometers per hour. When passing through Central Asia, people only needed to look up to see a fireball flying overhead at a speed of 25 Mach.

The six astronauts from four countries received extremely high courtesy, and each of them was awarded the title of "Abe Hero" and received a large reward.

Finally, the six were sent to the holy city of Mecca, as servants who "served Allah", to spread the gospel to the believers who were still here.

In order to shake hands with the servants of Allah, tens of thousands of believers in Mecca had more than 600 stampedes in one day, but this did not discourage the fanatical believers at all.

Then Hamand met with the six astronauts in the evening together with the heads of the other three countries. The former's reputation also rose. After discussion with the Aber Space Agency, it was decided to award Hamand and Sweetan a commemorative medal for their contributions...

Since then, the $8 billion package cooperation plan signed by Aber and Xinyuan has been basically completed.

The Mecca space shuttle will stay in Aber for 10 days, during which time it will be guarded by Xinyuan engineers. Except for some senior executives, no one is allowed to enter and can only visit from outside.

Then the Mecca will be transported back to Xinyuan for maintenance, and the same will be done for the Xinyuan II rocket.

This process will take about a month. Aber has planned the second Mecca mission at the end of August, and the six crew members are ready.

Hamand is already entangled in worldly affairs and can't go. He can only wait for an unknown period of time.

On July 16, in the assembly hangar of the spacecraft workshop of the Class B base, the An-1250 was half-backed by a trailer for hoisting and transportation.

The crane was installed next to it, and the object to be placed on the An-1250 was very familiar: a space shuttle.

It was not a small space shuttle like H1 or Dream Chaser, but a large space shuttle with a maximum take-off weight of more than 100 tons like Columbia and Buran.

If Hamand is still here, this is the H2 space shuttle that made him determined to invest two years ago.

Of course, the two H2 conventional power versions were only started on June 1, and it is impossible to build them in more than a month. This is just a full-size aerodynamic test prototype.

Its internal materials are simplified aluminum tubes and iron sheets, and even a lot of wood is used. Although the volume is almost the same as the official version, it is very light, and a lot of counterweights are stuffed in for real simulation.

This prototype will be used to test the aerodynamic layout and structural weaknesses of H2. Although it has no power, it also has retractable landing gear and movable flaps, and can glide and fly under remote control on the ground.

The test location is still the same old place, Ulan Hashan Airport.

The latter was borrowed from Xinyuan, and has gradually lost its military attributes. It has become a site for astronaut training and testing of various non-sensitive aircraft. The basic conditions of the airport have also been greatly improved.

In the afternoon, when the sun was at its strongest, the An-1250 equipped with a full-size H2 prototype taxied on the runway and took off.

The size of H2 is amazing, with a length of 74 meters, a maximum width of 34 meters, and a vertical tail height of 12 meters. Even if the An 1250 is carrying it, it does not look small, but it highlights the exaggerated size.

A lot of people have gathered around the B-level base every day since the An-1250 flew over a few days ago. They are all enthusiasts who come to shoot the take-off scene of the An-1250, and they will also roughly estimate the best time to take off.

The weather was very good this afternoon, so a lot of people came to watch, and then everyone saw a classic scene:

An 1250 lifts off carrying the H2 space shuttle!

This scene feels familiar, because the An-1250 is the aerodynamic reference object, and the An-225 is designed to carry the Buran space shuttle around.

The An-1250 is an enlarged version of the An-225, and the H2 space shuttle is an enlarged version of the Buran. So... the Alliance is back? !

The airplane enthusiasts who came to shoot said they had made a profit. Seeing such a famous scene again after more than 20 years, those who didn't know thought it was a dream to return to the alliance, and Jingsu shed tears!

The H2 space shuttle has also attracted strong attention because it is too big, bigger than anything ever built by Aramco and Alliance!

Don't worry about whether it's lagging behind or not, just say it's big or not!
